Play an important part in our journey
As one of our HR Assistants, you’ll be a key member of our team, looking after approximately 8,000 employees in the UK across multiple depots and departments. Your role is all about delivering the very best service to our people, providing a positive employee experience across all areas along the full employee lifecycle, from hire to retire, including changes to terms and conditions of employment and employee relations support.
You’ll be responsible for producing a range of letters and contracts to a high standard, working across multiple dashboards and shared mailboxes, prioritising effectively to ensure our SLAs are met. The HR Services team plays a role in many business projects, so you’ll also have the opportunity to contribute to the outcome of these projects.
As part of our HR Transformation programme over the next few years, we’re creating a self-service culture that will make our managers' lives easier. We’re doing this by introducing new technology that will reduce manual administration and create efficiencies, enabling our teams to focus on activities that add value.
It’s a two-way street!
We believe that finding the right fit is a two-way street – it’s just as important for us to tick your boxes, as it is for you to tick ours. So if you think you’ve got what it takes but you might not have everything we’re looking for, we’d still love to hear from you!
We’re a flexible team, so once you’ve completed your induction training, you’ll be able to work from home up to 3 days a week. We like to work together in the office on a Tuesday so we can all attend our team meeting in person.
About us Our journey began back in 1929. Since then, we’ve continued to build a strong and resilient business with a great future. It's why we believe we’re the best foodservice provider in the country.
